“And he said unto them, unto you (alchemists) it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without (the fornicators), all these things are done in parables: That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand (the spiritual meaning of the written word); lest at any time (through white tantra) they should be converted (into chaste souls), and their (egotistical lustful) sins (from their animal past) should be forgiven them.” – Mark 4: 11, 12

"Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. Do not err, my beloved brethren.” James 1: 12-16

"Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?” James 2: 17-20
